Thanks guys - After looking at the two earlier versions, I finally settled here. The story of the photo isn't all of the locks. It's that one lock at the bottom center. The title referring to a pattern is probably a bit misleading.
I cut off the other locks because they kept drawing my attention away from the different lock. There is a story about that different lock (that would be boring to most people) that goes with the picture. The final photo and the story were sent to a few local friends. The 16:9 aspect ratio makes a better fit for my screen wallpaper. At the end of the day, when you get a lot of input from a lot of people, it is valuable, but you still need to go with your own judgement.
